Cleethorpes Beach — Attraction in England

I didn't really know what to expect when we went to this beach. Having read the reviews, it was hard to say whether we were even going to a beach. However, all things considered it is a beach and we did enjoy it. It is different to your standard beach, this is a main estuary and the tide goes out a long way giving you way more things to do than a normal beach. Today was one of the hottest days of the year and the water flowing into the sea was warm enough to be enjoyable, although once it entered the sea, you did feel the real temperature.

Cleethorpes does not have a sophisticated pleasure beach, with advanced rides, it has three or four antiquated rides on the beach. Nostalgic but nothing to write home about. With current social distancing, we were able to find a nice spot and, could easily have stayed there and done nothing else. However, walking down over the mud into the sand dunes and into the sea, is something that needs to be experienced to be appreciated.

Parking is on the main road overlooking the beach. By the time we got there this was full, but there are overflow car parks that charge 5.00 for the day.

All in all a good day and plenty to do so do not knock it until you...

A really nice and clean public beach. The tide was out and was miles away, check tide times if you would like to see any water. There's a nice prom next to the beach which can walk along. There is parking along the pleasant promenade and also at the leisure centre. It costs about £5 for the whole day. There are toilets near the leisure centre and toilets across from the railway station near the pier. If you park near the leisure centre you can visit the boating lake at the back and then walk the whole length of the prom past the Pier down towards the opposite end. It's a pleasant walk by the sea. It gets a little bit crowded towards the amusements, where there is little Social distancing and PPE being adhered to. However, this is only a Small Part of what is a pleasant little seaside town. The small outdoor cafe near the leisure centre -which is situated on the corner of the prom- is a pleasant stop for a drink and a snack. Great hygiene looks to be in place there too. As you walk along the prom towards the pier , just where the prom reverts to a car park and a walkway, on the left on the main road is a pleasant fish and...

Its been a few years since I was last there and I was shocked at how much it had downgraded. A big disappointment.

The beach was full.of rubbish bags, plastic, all sorts, even dog foul. Ok it was towards end of day but I would not like my kids to play there, due to the amou t of rubbish. How dog foul, got there when you arent allowed dogs on the beach I dont know, thats if it was dog foul and not human. You can expect the odd bit of rubbish especially at the end of a hot day but not piles of it every few feet and especially not on a so called clean beach. Even the bins by the road side were over flowing and surrounded by bags of rubbish didnt look like they had been emptied all day. You would expect them to be emptied several times during a busy hot day like today was

There are very few ways from the road down to the beach so expect to walk some distance from your car. Also either dont expect to need the bathroom all day, be happy to walk some distance away from the beach or be prepared to be a customer of papas fish and chips as there few public...
